  • Selected Works of Chokan Valikhanov Selected Works of Chokan Valikhanov
    SELECTED WORKS OF CHOKAN VALIKHANOV CHOKAN OF WORKS SELECTED SELECTED WORKS OF CHOKAN VALIKHANOV Pioneering Ethnographer and Historian of the Great Steppe When Chokan Valikhanov died of tuberculosis in 1865, aged only 29, the Russian academician Nikolai Veselovsky described his short life as ‘a meteor flashing across the field of oriental studies’. Set against his remarkable output of official reports, articles and research into the history, culture and ethnology of Central Asia, and more important, his Kazakh people, it remains an entirely appropriate accolade. Born in 1835 into a wealthy and powerful Kazakh clan, he was one of the first ‘people of the steppe’ to receive a Russian education and military training. Soon after graduating from Siberian Cadet Corps at Omsk, he was taking part in reconnaissance missions deep into regions of Central Asia that had seldom been visited by outsiders. His famous mission to Kashgar in Chinese Turkestan, which began in June 1858 and lasted for more than a year, saw him in disguise as a Tashkent mer- chant, risking his life to gather vital information not just on current events, but also on the ethnic make-up, geography, flora and fauna of this unknown region. Journeys to Kuldzha, to Issyk-Kol and to other remote and unmapped places quickly established his reputation, even though he al- ways remained inorodets – an outsider to the Russian establishment. Nonetheless, he was elected to membership of the Imperial Russian Geographical Society and spent time in St Petersburg, where he was given a private audience by the Tsar. Wherever he went he made his mark, striking up strong and lasting friendships with the likes of the great Russian explorer and geographer Pyotr Petrovich Semyonov-Tian-Shansky and the writer Fyodor Dostoyevsky.

  • Landscape and Climate Role in the Formation of Sturgeon Reproduction Biotopes in the Ural River (Zhaiyk)

Mikodina1, *, Gulmira M. Shalgimbaeva2 and Alexander A. Volkov1 1Russian Federal Research Institute of Fisheries and Oceanography, Russian Federation 2 Fisheries Research and Production Center, Republic Kazakhstan Abstract. Geoecology of the Ural River: landscape, climate, flora, and ichthyofaunal are given. Features of air and water temperature, winds, water sources, and balance are detailed. Information about Sturgeon fishes of the Acipenseridae family, the number of which is critical, is presented. The interaction of natural conditions and anthropogenic factors in the creature of spawning biotopes is described. 1 Introduction The Ural River flows through the territories of two countries – The Russian Federation and the Republic of Kazakhstan, i.e., it is a transboundary one. Since 2018, the Russian-Kazakh Commission has been engaged in conserving the Ural River basin's ecosystem. The state of the reserves of joint transboundary species of Caspian Sea aquatic biological resources (ABR) their study, conservation, and reproduction is a priority [1]. 2 Materials and methods Analytical and expeditionary methods were used. Expedition works were located on the Republic of Kazakhstan's territory, held 15–23 September 2016, on West Kazakhstan and Atyrau regions. The depth of the river bed at the spawning grounds was measured with a GARMIN GPSMAP 580/585 echo sounder, the current velocity was measured with an ISP- 1 hydrometric spinner at the crossings of the surveyed spawning grounds, and the water temperature was measured at the sections of the channel spawning grounds with a laboratory water thermometer.

  • Chronology of the Aral Sea Events from the 16Th to the 21St Century
    Chronology of the Aral Sea Events from the 16th to the 21st Century Years General Events 16th century 1558 An English merchant and diplomat, Anthony Jenkinson, travels through Central Asia and observes the medieval desiccation of the Aral Sea. He writes that ‘‘the water that serveth all to country is drawn by ditches out of the river Oxus [old name for Amudarya] into the great destruction of the said river, for which it falleth not into the Caspian Sea as it gath done in times past, and in short time all land is like to be destroyed, and to become a wilderness foe want of water when the river Oxus shall fail.’’ A. Jenkinson crosses the Ustyurt and visits Khiva and Bukhara, preparing a map of Central Asia. 1573 ‘‘Turn’’ of the Amudarya from the Sarykamysh to the Aral; in other words, the rather regular flow of part of its waters into the Sarykamysh ceases, the waters from this time running only to the Aral. 17th century 1627 In the book, ‘‘Knigi, glagolemoy Bolshoy Chertezh’’ (‘‘the big sketch’’), the Aral Sea is named ‘‘The dark blue sea.’’ 1670 German geographer Johann Goman publishes the map ‘‘Imperium pereicum,’’ on which the Aral is represented as a small lake located 10 German miles from the northeastern margin of the Caspian Sea. 1697 On Remezov’s map of the Aral Sea (more Aral’sko), it is for the first time represented as an internal lake completely separated from the Caspian Sea and into which the Amundarya (Amu Darya, Oxus), the Syrt (Syr Darya, Yaksart), and many small rivers flow.

More than three-quarters of its inflow comes from the Ili River, which is under increasing strain due to the diversion of water for energy and food production. Commercial fishing in Lake Balkhash began in 1929 and is currently in a state of crisis. The construction of the Balkhash dam and reservoir in the late 1960s reduced Ili River flows into the lake and upset the natural cycle of spring floods, which greatly reduced spawning and feeding areas for carp (Cyprinus carpio).
